LARGE_VOLTAGE_SWING_WITH_WIMITED_SUPPLY_VOLTAGES

Published:2009/7/20 3:08:00 Author:Jessie

Circuit shows usual solution to problem, wherein final transistor is operated near positive supply voltage and zener diode provides coupling. Drop in gain caused by R can be eliminated by using constant-current diode in place of R. If R1, R2, and R3 are similarly replaced with these diodes, circuit becomes independent of positive line, eliminating spurious feedback through this line.-T. K.

BRIDGE_CIRCUIT_WITH_ONE_POWER_SUPPLY

Published:2009/7/9 21:22:00 Author:May

For systems with only one power supply, two op amps act as instrumentation and buffer amps. The OPA111AM buffers the reference mode of the bridge and applies that voltage to the instrumentation amps REF terminal. Output is taken between the amplifier outputs to exclude the fixed output offset. The additional op amp creates a bridge error of IB x R/2, where IB = bias current of op amp and fi is the resistance of one leg of the bridge.   (View)

ACCESS_CONTROL_FOR_OPEN_REPEATER

Published:2009/7/20 4:56:00 Author:Jessie

Permits repeater to run open, for user access without access tone, when there is no outside interference on input frequency. Carrier-operated relay (COR) pulse is shaped by 7400 gates U5A and U5B, for keying transmitter through U5C as long as output of U5D is high. (Turning guard control switch off latches output of U5D high, letting repeater run open) When control switch is on, repeater can be accessed only by use of guarded input applied toQ1 such as 2000-Hz tone burst, 1336-Hz Touch-Tone signal, or 110.9-Hz private line. Repeater then remains open for 5s after duration of each transmission. System prevents fringe-area station from blocking repeater access for local users. When receiver squelch is operated 3 times in succession by signal not having one of access tones, input is automatically guarded for 15min by timer U3-U4 unless accepted access tone arrives.-R.
